In the silent night, snowflakes fall slowly and accumulate all over the hillside. The faint starlight scattered in the starry sky reflects the white world. With the howling of the wind, snow makes a sound.
The gate of tunwobao suddenly opened, and orderly rows of Knights of the Knox Empire rode out, splashing snowflakes with the dull sound of horseshoes.
Looking through his black face armor, modrian saw a total of 350 Knights of the Knox Empire standing on the middle of the mountain like sculptures. The Dark Armor fell with snow, and the red war horses that stepped down made a loud cry from time to time, emitting a faint white breath.
In addition to the present, he led 10 trefari soldiers according to dreus's suggestion. Ten war masons and ten Knox expeditionary cavalry set out together, and the rest would guard Fort tunwaugh under crane's leadership.
defense?
no As far as the Knox empire is concerned, there is only attack and killing, which is the pride engraved in the bones of the Knox people.
With ferocious steel armor, dreus rode and stood in front of the team. His eyes like lions and tigers ignored the falling snowflakes and stared at each of the Knights of the Knox empire. His scarlet cloak waved with the wind and pulled a bright red in the snow-white world.
"Let's go!"
The low roar echoed in the sky over tunwobao. There was not much declaration of departure, just two words, but it still stirred the heart of the Knights of the Knox empire. Bloodthirsty and fanaticism appeared in their eyes.
The sound of horse's hoofs sounded like thunder, shattered the snowflakes all over the ground, and then penetrated the night like a sharp arrow, leaving a trace like a comet.
......................
In the town of irvindale, on the towering wall, Manan Jerome, as a garrison officer, is on guard tonight. He is not the only one. The magic light shines, and the wall piers are guarded by the city guard.
"Damn the snow, the speed is getting worse and worse!" Ma Nan looked up at the falling snowflakes, rubbed his hands and whispered.
"Who could have thought of it? I thought the glory festival would not snow in the future, but I didn't want to fall at the beginning of spring." the captain of the urban defense army, GNA, looked at his old boss and said with a smile.
"But the old people in the town say that the first snow in the new year indicates a good harvest this year. I hope so."
"Good omen?"
Manan shook his head and smiled bitterly. After receiving the bloody incident from Lafarge city yesterday, he knew that the situation in the north of stoke kingdom would not be very good this year. He looked in the direction of renwal mountains. The neighbors there heard that something had happened.
"Gunner, is it time for the change of sentry outside?" dispersed his thoughts. Manan asked about his responsibility. The collapse of Whitley manor sounded an alarm for all towns in the north of the Kingdom, which is also the reason why he was on duty tonight.
"Should it be here?" said gunner, calculating the time, uncertain. Then he was ready to get up and go out. "My Lord, I'll go out and have a look. You can rest here and wait. It's snowy outside."
"No, let's go out together." Ma Nan frowned. There was a sense of dignity on his black and fat face. He didn't know whether it was recent nervousness or something. He always felt something was going to happen.
Boom!
The wooden door of the sentry was knocked open, and a city guard in iron armor hurriedly ran in. After meeting Manan and gunner, he gasped and said, "Sir, urgent information, a large group of cavalry passed through the town of ewendell and went south."
Ma Nan felt nervous when he heard the speech. Then he took the liquor from the wooden table and handed it to the sentry in front of him. He comforted and said, "don't worry. Slow down. A large wave of cavalry? How many people? Where are the cavalry from? Can you know the direction?"
"The direction of the renwal mountains is probably the subordinate of the pioneering Knight Lord modrian, with a number of about 300-500." the sentry drank up the liquor, felt a lot warmer, and his tone began to calm down.
South? Lafarge? Whitley estate?
I don't know why, Ma Nan subconsciously linked three things together. If the cavalry team with more than 300 is the elite cavalry he has seen, it seems that something really doesn't happen.
As for why the Lord modrian had so many cavalry, it was not in his consideration. Curiosity would kill people.
Without any hesitation, Manan immediately turned around, grabbed gunner's shoulder with both hands, and said in a serious tone: "immediately, immediately, send out all the city guard sentinels on duty. Tonight I want Baron Benny and count Raphael to know what happened here."
"Yes, sir." gunner also realized that things were abnormal, and quickly turned to inform the lazy urban guards. He had seen the terrible black cavalry.
It was snowy at night. Manan stayed at the sentry alone, raised his hand, picked up the wine pot beside the table, poured a mouthful of strong wine, and whispered, "the situation in the north of the kingdom will be completely chaotic. Hey, will the glory of peace no longer exist..."
......................
Edalas City, Harriman castle, in a low-key and luxurious study.
Count Raphael seemed to have just got up and sat quietly on the throne in a silk Pajama, listening to the report of Butler atly.
"Are you sure?" count Raphael thought for a moment after hearing the emergency information. His old face was full of dignity, and finally spoke slowly.
"It's the information urgently sent by Manan Jerome, the town garrison officer of irvindale. There should be no problem," housekeeper atley said softly.
"Oh, it's really a crazy guy. He's as much as Brooke, or even better." count Raphael showed a trace of praise in his bright dark eyes. Although he doesn't know the result of the war, he especially appreciates modrian's decisive choice.
"Did Benny do anything?"
"No, the garrison official residence has no other abnormal actions except the urban guard who sent information before." a strange look flashed in the eyes of Butler atley, who seemed unable to see Baron Benny's choice.
"Haha, it seems that Benny wants to stay out of the competition for the hereditary title of the Peres family," whispered count Raphael, with a touch of irony.
Butler attley ignored the sarcasm in the master's tone. Because of Lambert's affair, the master complained a lot about Viscount Brooke, but he did not completely cut off contact, but not as frequently as before.
"What should we do now? The warrant sent by Viscount Brooke some time ago hopes that we can secretly provide some help to modrian." Butler atley asked.
"Wait for the result. Maybe there is a war over there now!"
Count Raphael's vision seemed to cross the distance of space and fall on the invisible war. He had a strange premonition. It seemed that the result of the war between the second son of the Peres family and the iron thorn cavalry Corps might not be expected by many people, but also change many factors and situations.
"The chaotic situation has just begun, and there are many possibilities for choice!"
